Look at the "call" command. This works for commands contained in the scripts of other objects, and I thought you could use if for functions too, but as I just experimented with it, I can't get that to work. However, you can do this: put the following into the script of fld "text": on testFn x return x^2 + 1 end testFn Then in the script of some other object you can: call "testFn 3" of fld "test" put the result And you will indeed get "10" in the message box. -- Peter Peter M.
